Chinese dissident artist shows support for Ukraine in new work

The Chinese dissident artist known as Badiucao shows his support for Ukraine in new work that has gone on show in Prague, while also taking aim at the leaders of Russia and China.

The China-born political cartoonist and artist, who goes by a pseudonym and has drawn comparisons to graffiti artist Banksy, presents six paintings on the Ukraine war collectively entitled "The Butterfly Effect of Kyiv" at Prague's DOX gallery.

The paintings include one of a tank with the "Z" sign used by Russian forces on their armoured vehicles, and a girl in a Ukrainian folk costume putting a sunflower into the tank's barrel.
